This series of conferences has been a main gathering event of Chinese American oceanic and atmospheric scientists and their colleagues and have been held in U.S., Taiwan, Hong Kong and mainland China.

The conference aims to bring global Chinese professionals on ocean and atmosphere science and technology to exchange ideas and experiences in the practical application of innovative sciences and technologies related to ocean and weather observing and forecasting systems, climate change and global warming. The conference is the premier platform for experts from all over the world to explore new technologies, inspire new strategies, and identify opportunities for future collaborations with their peers. It is also a means for senior scientists and engineers to provide helpful information for younger ones to stimulate the knowledge transfer from generation to generation.
